Sensitivity Analysis and Stray Capacitance of Helical Flux Compression Generator with Multi Layer Filamentary Conductor in Rectangular Cross-Section

This paper presents an approach to calculate the equivalent stray capacitance (SC) of n-turn of the helical flux compression generator (HFCG) coil with multi layer conductor wire filaments (MLCWF) in the form of rectangular cross-section. This approach is based on vespiary regular hexagonal (VRH) model. In this method, wire filaments of the generator coil are separated into many very small simi...

Investigations of HTS Twisted Stacked-Tape Conductor

Advances in YBCO coated conductor technology

Processes for producing both the YSZ template film by IBAD and the YBCO superconducting film by PLD at 1 m lengths have achieved Ic values of 122 A and Jc values of 1 MA/cm2. Improvements have been made in all stages of the process. Variations of Ic along the length of the 1-m samples stimulated development of a new in-field Ic measurement capability. The use of MgO as an IBAD template film has...

Fabrication and characterization of wire-like SnO2

Wire-like SnO2 is fabricated by the wet chemical method. X-ray diffraction measurements show that the obtained samples have rutile-type structure. Electron transmission microscopy experiments illustrate that the wire-like SnO2 ranged from 10 to 50 nm in width and several microns (μm) in length. The high-resolution TEM indicates that SnO2 wires are single crystals. The possible growth mechanism ...

Material Evaluation: Self Damping Wire SD/ACSR Conductor Failures

Power District (NPPD) implemented an inspection program to determine the extent of condition for this type of widely used conductor. Other companies which have had related issues with similar types of corrosion have simply replaced their existing insignificant miles of conductor; however NPPD transmission system includes over 2000 miles of this particular conductor. Throughout 2012, many other ...
